This press briefing followed another contentious moment from the previous week, when Trump was asked by a reporter from nonprofit news outlet NOTUS about recent criticism from Republican Congressman Andy Harris. Trump dismissed the question abruptly, saying, “Who? I don’t even know what that is.”
These recent interactions have renewed focus on Trump’s tone with the press as speculation continues about a potential second term. His off-the-cuff responses and strong reactions continue to dominate headlines and spark debate across the political spectrum.
Whether the nickname resurfaces in future public appearances remains uncertain, but the exchange has added yet another chapter to the ongoing conversation about Trump’s approach to media engagement and public messaging.
